Nickel–Tungsten and Nickel–Molybdenum Sulfide Diesel Hydrocarbon Hydrogenation Catalysts Synthesized in Pores of Aromatic Polymer Materials

Аннотация

Porous aromatic polymer materials based on tetraphenylmethane molecules linked by methylene groups have been synthesized. By impregnating these materials with nickel–tungsten and nickel–molybdenum thiosalts, catalysts for the hydrogenation of bicyclic aromatic hydrocarbons of the diesel fraction have been prepared. Nanoparticles of the active sulfide phase are formed in support pores during the reaction; it is assumed that after the formation of the nanoparticles, the support material will undergo partial degradation to rearrange the mesoporous structure into a macroporous structure providing the best diffusion of substrates to the surface of the sulfide nanoparticles. The synthesized catalysts have been tested in the hydrogenation of naphthalene and naphthalene derivatives at a hydrogen pressure of 5 MPa and a temperature of 380°C.
